  Well Water Problems

The well for my house is 280ft deep and the water comes to within 8' of the surface. From there a 1hp myers pump pumps into the Aireator and a 3/4hp myers pump on a blatter tank sends in the house. The setup has been working for 12yrs.

My flowing well is 680ft deep and will send a 2" stream of water 8'. It will change all the waterout in my 1 acre pond in 12hrs. One thing, there is no oxygen in the water. When putting water in a pond it must splash on the surface or some kind of stucture. Almost killed all the fish, that is how i know how long it takes to change out. Alot of guys use a bushhog, back it in the pond and let it eat.

BA

When they put my flowing well down they drilled until they hit limestone or I guess bed rock at 640'. They told me that the casing was set at that depth. They then continued drilling for another 40'. It was eaiser for the water to flow up, than to continue on through the rock. The rock was the casing for the last 40'. He said that if you pulled a chunk of the rock up it would look like a sponge. There was no under ground river (Colloquil term)like I had heard from my youth just a rock bed.
So maybe they will drill on past your casing and as the water flows into the new hole you will pump it in the house or as needed. Hope this helped

Blueman

We have Aerators here used to git rid of the sulfur smell in the water. They are above ground easy to clean and come in all sizes up to 1000 gallons I know. You can add bleach in the correct raitos to pruify. They have hoses at the bottom so they can be drained. Mine is 300 gl with a fiber glass top that you can lift off, a one HP myers pump sprays water from a section of pvc pipe with holes cut in with a hacksaw to provide a spraying action with a float switch as a cut off. I have had mine for 12 years and no problems. The tank if also made of fiber glass.
